I had always had this knack of reading and solving riddles back in my old school. It's fun, especially since I could see the frustrated faces of some old friends putting on those mad looks when you can't solve a riddle, which then turns out that it had the simplest and cleverest answer/solution in the riddle.
There's many types of riddles, but the most awesome and complicated sort is the sort that doesn't even speak in rhymes or poems. A riddle can be a long statement (sometimes when it's really tricky, like you have to solve a detective case like which killed the victim, yaddi-yadda...), and believe me, that's the hardest sort of riddle ever.
But I'm exaggerating things. Let's see if you can solve some...in three seconds!
Ready!
Okay!
What walks in four in the morning, two in the noon and three at night?
3, 2, 1..
Still no answer?
Man...
Next!
I have many corners, have many heights,
I am solid and dark if there're no lights,
I live in the room, I am the room and contain spaces.
What am i?
3, 2, 1...
Ahem, ahem...
A wall...
Last one!
I talk, but I don't speak my mind,
I hear words, but not listen to other's thoughts,
When I wake, all see me,
When I sleep, all hear me,
Many heads are on my shoulders,
Many hands are at my feet,
The strongest steel cannot break my visage,
But the softest whisper can destroy my soul.
What am I?
3, 2, 1...
Okaaay...
Answer?
An actor/actress.
Well, that's it for me. I hope you now have a new found respect for Riddles! (Curse these complicated conundrums!)
